As long as Xie Jingrong was engaged, Yuezheng Ting would leave him alone. She was just too annoying.
Xie Jingrong showed a weak smile. "I can't lose my whole life for this tiny nuisance, right?"
Yuezheng Xiao laughed.
It was so annoying that someone just had no idea how they should behave.
In the wagon, Yuezheng Ting's face sank.
Jiang said angrily, "Third Young Master behaves way over the top. How can he say such a thing in front of you! Let's tell Madame Yuezheng about this, so he can be punished."
Irritated, Yuezheng Ting snapped at her. "Alright, alright, what is the point of telling Grandma about this?"
Grandma would just tell him not to do that, and that was it. She did not want to look more irritating in his eyes.
"You are simply too kind, Miss!" Jiang mumbled. "But why is Third Young
Master not helping you? Isn't that a good thing for the Yuezheng Family after all?"
Yuezheng Ting bit her lips and said nothing more.
That was exactly what she was thinking.
It would be a good thing for the whole family. But her Third Brother was not helping her and also pretending not to know a thing. That was so disgusting!
She was growing older and older, and would need to get engaged to someone else after a couple of more years, if she didn't manage to get the man she wanted.
But she was not convinced.
Which other family had a better groom than the lineal grandson of the Xie Family in the whole province?
It would be such an honor if she could marry Xie Jingrong!
Everyone was going to be jealous of her!
More importantly, she had the chance to make it happen.
Her Third Brother and Xie Jingrong were good friends. As long as he helped, she would have at least 80%, if not 100% chance to get him!
She really fancied Xie Jingrong personally as well, keeping aside his background.
Xie Jingrong was such a handsome man that was attractive to everyone…
Yuezheng Ting felt so annoyed. She decided to think of a better way to make this happen.
Yuezheng Ting was just thinking when she heard Jiang speak. "Look at that, isn't that Young Master Shao and his family?"
It was cloudy today, not very hot, and Qiao Xuan and the other three walked back to the hotel, strolling along the street.
Yuezheng Ting cast an arrogant look at her and rolled her eyes.
She had no interest in looking at them.
Jing sneered. "Poverty!"
They could not even afford to ride in wagons.
In the afternoon, Yuezheng Xiao and Xie Jingrong visited the hotel again, and exchanged business matters with Qiao Xuan. They also talked about the tea leaves. They were quite confident about the future.
As for the colleges and the scholars whom Shao Yunduan would like to visit, the Xie Family knew it all.
Xie Jingrong gave him the advice and even expressed that he would send a pageboy to tag along.
With Xie Jingrong's pageboy around, he would remind Shao Yunduan and help him reach the right people. In the process, he would not become a target for people to get jealous about or attract too much attention.
If Xie Jingrong went there with him, Shao Yunduan might be the topic of gossip among the scholars in the whole province.
This seemed to be a proper arrangement.
Shao Yunduan thanked him politely.
Qiao Xuan was quite glad. Xie Jingrong was such a friendly and considerate person!
Xie Jingrong also expressed that he would treat them for another meal after a few days. After speaking with them for a while, the two friends left together..
